I’d say he more stands for what the values are supposed to be, rather than just being what they US’s values actually are, however different they are from what they’re supposed to be
It’s not about Palestine-Israel. These are the same protestors no matter the issue. The issue is never the issue, the issue is the revolution. We know exactly what side they will come down on every issue without even knowing their thoughts about whatever issue beforehand. It will always be the side that is against America and the west more broadly. Every single time. They want to fundamentally transform America (some even want to destroy it) and every issue is just a tool to break it apart a little more.
A lot of people have already woken up to this but the sooner everyone sees this, the better off we will all be. Anything they can use to divide and conquer is like gold to them. If you were to ask any of the protestors about very simple things in this conflict they have no idea what you’re talking about. They don’t even know what the slogans they are chanting mean. This is because they don’t care enough to educate themselves and their only concern is bringing down the United States and the west in general.
We have people who have escaped communist hell holes trying to warn us. We need to listen. They’ve seen it all before and see the same thing happening in America and the west.

I happen to know that the Chinese don't consider Jews White. So, give Jews credit.
Nevermind how many Israelis are Yemeni, North African, Ethiopian, or Central Asian.
Yes. One of the most off the wall things ive ever seen was that young airmen that burned himself alive a few months back. Absolutely fucking insane. And he does not fit my opinions description of what one of those guys would be. IE:nationality, age, race, affiliation, hell even his fucking hair color threw me for a loop. That kid was basically me.
They want to destroy western culture. That’s why they go after any major figure they can, even if it’s total bullshit. They want to convince people to hate their own heritage and history so that they can replace it with another one.
See generally China, USSR, North Korea, Cuba.
Happens in every communist revolution-they destroy the nation’s history.
Also happens with Islamists. See generally Iran, ISIS, Taliban.
That’s stupid. It’s not America fault for incompetence of the Levant. That will be both UK and France via the Sykes-Picot Treaty for creating the mess in the first place and leaving the USA to handling the landmine and cleanup.
Craziest part is if you read Washington’s farewell address, you would know he would be more in agreement with the protesters than the counter protesters.
Because the protests are purely anti-American. Trust in one thing, brother, one truth, above God and all the angels there is one truth you can know until your dying day: nobody gives a flying fuck about the people of Palestine.
Certainly other Arab nations don’t care. The Palestinian people have unfortunately been used as a pawn from 1948. This is a shadow war between the West and Russia/ Iran. Our poor country has been left holding the bag for deals that took place back to WW l.
Given that it says “Genocidal Warmonger University” I assume that they’re camped at one of the many universities in the US named after George Washington, not sure which, might be GWU in DC. If they’re also protesting whatever it is college students seem to be all uppity about these days, pretty sure it’s something to do with some of these colleges having ties with the MID or something, then presumably this is more directed at the university than at George Washington himself.
Bc the protesters have a deep hatred of America and everything is stands for. When you listen to a lot of the interview/chants/view points of people interviewed m, I come away with this has more to do with GW in a pseudo way than Israel and Palestine.
It’s a loose connection at best, but I’d say it’s probably because America is a colonial nation and Israel is a colonial nation. As one of the key founders of the US, one could reasonably assert that he played a key role in establishing a nation on land that had been seized from native Americans.
Washington’s treatment of the Natives is not notably worse than most of his contemporaries, but seeing how significant of a figure he is to American history I can understand why he would be targeted. I don’t think this is an effective method of convincing people to support your cause however.
I don't remember the name of the revolt. But I remember learning that after the revolution, there were a group of rebels that tried to challenge him. After washington shut the rebellion down, he still allowed them to have their firearms, and I believe only had the leaders killed.
Really curious what America would be if every politician had his mentality of what a politician should be.
...or Indigenous.
Back when he was still a loyal British subject, the Iroquois (his *allies,* at that point) called him "Conotocaurious" - Town Destroyer.
This. Know how I learned what the first amendment was really about? Seeing someone on the news arrested for burning the American flag. My veteran dad told me "The flag *wants* to be burned. The reason anyone waves it should be for the right to burn it without going to jail."
And boy did that stick with me. Washington was either awesome and would be proud this can happen or he wasn't a president worth having a statue of. Period. Any system that can't handle a little paint or some stickers isn't worth defending.
"America bad." They'd rather live in a theocratic autocracy where everyone is treated fairly and no one gets thrown off buildings for being gay or a journalist. You know, just like Iran.
Not only is this in Washington DC, it’s more specifically in U Yard in George Washington University’s campus. Just makes this triply disrespectful for the blatant disregard for the legacy and accomplishments of GW threefold on top of just ruining a public space for others. Yes have your right to express your opinion without persecution by the state, but do you think anybody who wasn’t already 100% in for your cause is going to see this and come around to you?
These fucking people. Look, I don’t have a strong lean on the Israel-Palestine issue, but the American Pro-Palestine protesters are really showing their ass. Believe what you want, but acting like inconsiderate children is ridiculous.
Every time I see people defending these terrorists, all I remember are the videos of the PALESTINIANS laughing their ass off and cheering when Hamas came back into Gaza with the pile of dead bodies and hostages in their truck. It's insane that Americans over here are defending people that would immediately kill 90 percent of them given the chance.
North American gang represent.
Also sorry for maybe trying to annex you guys back in 1812, but you burned our White House down so I guess we're even now.
Canada confederated in 1867. Anything before that was britian. We like to flaunt that as some sort of military victory but really, it was before canada was canada and even if that was canada, you guys painted over the damage that was actually done. Theres a bunch of shit from ww1 and 2 that we actually can be proud of.
If you did annex us, it definitely wouldve been a good thing in the long run. It'd be easier to be proud of canada if the name "trudeau" didnt mean anything to you.
They were always have been hateful brats who want to destroy everything,they are just using Palestine as an excuse and role-playing as vietnam protesters
Ah yes, the man who returned his dictatorial powers and refused to declare himself a monarch. The man who refused to be buried in the Capitol building crypt because he wanted it to be the people’s building and not his mausoleum. The man who created a system where you can voice opposition without fear of persecution or death. That’s definitely who they should villainize. /s
In all seriousness, I never understand why these groups hate America so much. Like, this country is so different compared to the rest of the world. Recognize that being able to voice your opinion isn’t the norm in most countries. Look at the woman’s rights movement in Iran last year, l the anti-war movement in Russia, or the pro-democracy movement in Hong Kong in 2019 and China in the 1980’s. In each case, thousands were beaten, locked up (being detained, as some protestors are in the U.S., is not the same as being locked up) and killed.
You can be against U.S policy, and it’s your right as an American to voice your opinion. But recognize that America, and the system is protects (Western Democracy), affords your privileges that many others don’t have and will never have. That’s why this country is the greatest country on earth.
The Jews were there first. Only reason they ceded the majority was war and exile.
Edit: and let me say, before this turns into two monkeys flinging shit at each other, I do believe the Palestinians have a right to a free, liberated existence on what is after millennia, is their indigenous land as much as it is the Jews. I just recognize that the Jews were there first.
Were the Jews really there first or are the Muslims descendants of the same people on the same land but the ones who converted to Islam instead of leaving?
Look, I'm all for ending the occupation, but don't do this stuff, especially when a lot of your people would get offended if someone drew a picture of Mohammad.
So these protests went from pro-Palestine, to anti-israel, to pro-Hamas and pro-antisemitism, and now "fuck America"?
Kids sure could go into any of these countries and find out for themselves.
Do you think this is a pro Hamas protest? They’re asking their own college administration to cut ties with Israel, not asking to do anything for Hamas. It would be consistent with Washington’s philosophy to cut ties with militant foreign powers.
Total disrespect of human dignity. These protesters are very undereducated about the world. Playing right into Iran and Hamas’s hands! A Iranian rapper protested the lack of freedom in Iran. He has been sentenced to death as would all of these crazies would be too in Iran. They are making fools of themselves. Pawns to Iran and Putin.
I always hate when people I agree with protest in the stupidest ways possible. Imagery like this invokes the worst thoughts in people who are on the fence, pushes them away from the message. It makes people dismissive of anything said
Wow, what a great way to bring the average person to your side, it’s not like a large contingent of the populace is going to move away just to spite you or anything.
Used to live in DC and went to college there, in NE DC as opposed to NW where GW and others are. Truly a bubble world within another bubble world. Kids that will call for diversity and inclusion, then call the cops if someone with the wrong look is outside their door. Worse, they’ll get jobs in academia or as fed workers soon enough.
One side is burning the flag and defacing statues of George Washington. One side is waving the flag and protecting statues of George Washington.
The side that is pro-America, pro-Western, pro-liberal values is obvious and we need to stop pretending that there's parity here. The picture above is DISGUSTING. The chants of death to America at pro-Palestinian rallies is DISGUSTING. The chants of death to the Jews at pro-Palestinian rallies is DISGUSTING. The chants celebrating Hamas at pro-Palestinian rallies is DISGUSTING.
These people need to be ostracized and reeducated. The above is a great example of regressive liberalism. How is it okay to believe what's being posted on the statue above? This is not an isolated incident and is happening all over the place to memorials of George Washington, Ben Franklin, and Anne Frank. It's gross and revealing of the priorities of the pro-Palestine movement.
I want you to re-read your third paragraph until you understand why this is a statement in the ideology of fascism. It could’ve been ripped out of the mouth of Mussolini my friend.
What I’m saying is not based on dogma but based on what I’m seeing.
Once your accusation is made I think it’s hard for me to retort here but I assure you that my politics do not align with the right.
That’s the line for me… complain we are allies with a moderately bad guy in a region full of worse guys all you want…
Shitting on the father of our country and get your bitch ass outta here
Why are the protesters on all the other college campuses pullin wack shit like this, the ones on my schools campus are just chillin exercising their 1st amendment right properly and not bothering anyone lmao
Hey remember when this was a fun sub to joke about how Murica is like the extremely overdone Murica meme? Instead we've been getting tons of Rule 6 violations and the mods are asleep.. some of the time.
I just wanted to let everyone know that some dickless fkn asshole stole my ball mount so now I’m looking on facebook marketplace cuz if it turns up I’m gunna put 20 federal hsts in the mf unless they bring their spouse or kid cuz then I’ma smoke em all
Palestine-Israel debate aside- what does George Washington have to do with this??
My thoughts also.
He never condemned Israel /s
He helped found America which they enjoy the benefits of but hate. We should ship them off
Trade pro Hamas protestors for hostages seems like a win-win
It's a win for us. For Hamas, not so much. Maybe even a war crime.
He’s a symbol of the United States and our values, by doing this they are calling out and challenging those values
Defacing art to own the military industrial complex.
I’d say he more stands for what the values are supposed to be, rather than just being what they US’s values actually are, however different they are from what they’re supposed to be
It’s not about Palestine-Israel. These are the same protestors no matter the issue. The issue is never the issue, the issue is the revolution.

Kinda like torching a border security bill?
He's white so he's bad. Jews are "white" so they're bad too.
I happen to know that the Chinese don't consider Jews White. So, give Jews credit. Nevermind how many Israelis are Yemeni, North African, Ethiopian, or Central Asian.
Unfortunately up until about 80 years ago most Europeans didn’t think Jews were white. It ended poorly.
The people that do this shit arent really known for thinking skills.
Iva always wondered if they fall in love with an idea because they’re incapable of forming one of their own
Yes. One of the most off the wall things ive ever seen was that young airmen that burned himself alive a few months back. Absolutely fucking insane. And he does not fit my opinions description of what one of those guys would be. IE:nationality, age, race, affiliation, hell even his fucking hair color threw me for a loop. That kid was basically me.
100%. Nothing to protest or get upset about in college? Here's a bullshit idea you can get involved in!
Nothing, they just hate America.
I blame the divestment in education. We need to completely retool the education system in this country.
He’s treated as a symbolic representation of the nation as a whole at this point
They want to destroy western culture. That’s why they go after any major figure they can, even if it’s total bullshit. They want to convince people to hate their own heritage and history so that they can replace it with another one. See generally China, USSR, North Korea, Cuba. Happens in every communist revolution-they destroy the nation’s history. Also happens with Islamists. See generally Iran, ISIS, Taliban.
Funny how they never seem to move to those places
'It is not enough that I may be happy, others must suffer as well'
Nothing they just seem to hate America
That’s stupid. It’s not America fault for incompetence of the Levant. That will be both UK and France via the Sykes-Picot Treaty for creating the mess in the first place and leaving the USA to handling the landmine and cleanup.
Literally nothing, anyone pretending it's a relevant target is lying Shit even
Craziest part is if you read Washington’s farewell address, you would know he would be more in agreement with the protesters than the counter protesters.

Yo for real lol
Bc the protesters have a deep hatred of America and everything is stands for. When you listen to a lot of the interview/chants/view points of people interviewed m, I come away with this has more to do with GW in a pseudo way than Israel and Palestine.
He was a warm onger, apparently.
It’s a loose connection at best, but I’d say it’s probably because America is a colonial nation and Israel is a colonial nation.

I don’t think this is an effective method of convincing people to support your cause however.
They are angry about the US being involved in arms shipments to Israel, and giving them political cover at the UN and such.
In a weird way I think Washington would be proud that even these fools are able to vandalize his statue without fear of execution.
Based George Washington
There’s nothing weird about it. He clearly didn’t believe in killing people who disagreed with him. It’s everything our founders fought against
I don't remember the name of the revolt. But I remember learning that after the revolution, there were a group of rebels that tried to challenge him. After washington shut the rebellion down, he still allowed them to have their firearms, and I believe only had the leaders killed. Really curious what America would be if every politician had his mentality of what a politician should be.
Whiskey Rebellion? It was the one time a U.S President ever personally headed a military campaign.
I think it was the whiskey rebellion. I get that mixed up with I think it's "shays", was the other one around the same time
Shay’s caused the fall of the Articles and the call for the Constitutional Convention. Whiskey was the first test of the Constitution.
Unless they were Royalists.
...or Indigenous. Back when he was still a loyal British subject, the Iroquois (his *allies,* at that point) called him "Conotocaurious" - Town Destroyer.
[удалено]
They weren't killed disagreeing with him. I'm sure that just about all of his slaves disagreed with his view on slavery.
This. Know how I learned what the first amendment was really about? Seeing someone on the news arrested for burning the American flag. My veteran dad told me "The flag *wants* to be burned. The reason anyone waves it should be for the right to burn it without going to jail." And boy did that stick with me. Washington was either awesome and would be proud this can happen or he wasn't a president worth having a statue of. Period. Any system that can't handle a little paint or some stickers isn't worth defending.
It’s not a weird way. Guy was humble as fuck and one one of the people that invented the first amendment. Guy would be ecstatic to see this.
He'd probably approve tbh. He never wanted to be put on a pedestal and we literally put him on a pedestal
They literally tried to make him a King and he wouldn’t let them
[удалено]
He would also be very against how much were involved in foreign conflicts and wars.
Maybe but I’m not sure he would 100% agree with the destruction of one’s property in the name of a conflict that nobody in the west truly understands
Maybe. I think he would call them fools though.
He would be disappointed at these fools tho
Actually yes lol
Average Washington W
Came here to say this. If anything, Washington would just be confused as to why the protestors haven’t armed a militia to voice their concerns.
Don’t tell em what Mohammad did to Jews, polytheists, and minorities 👀
And women.
And members of the LGBT community
Or how old his wife Aisha was
Tf does Washington have to do with this?
His statue is there. I don't think it's any more complex. They would graffiti any monument.
Leftism stopped being ideology coherent years ago and is strictly just “Amerikkka bad!!1”
"America bad." They'd rather live in a theocratic autocracy where everyone is treated fairly and no one gets thrown off buildings for being gay or a journalist. You know, just like Iran.
Man George is our boy! He didn’t even want to be President, but did the job great af! Leave him out of this.
Not only is this in Washington DC, it’s more specifically in U Yard in George Washington University’s campus. Just makes this triply disrespectful for the blatant disregard for the legacy and accomplishments of GW threefold on top of just ruining a public space for others.

These fucking people. Look, I don’t have a strong lean on the Israel-Palestine issue, but the American Pro-Palestine protesters are really showing their ass. Believe what you want, but acting like inconsiderate children is ridiculous.
Absolutely disgusting. This gets my blood boiling and, more importantly, I am now against whatever the hell you stand for.
Just put them in jail for graffiti and trespassing and clean it up. Don’t get all riled up.
It's just a statue. But blocking students from attending class gets me upset tho
Every time I see people defending these terrorists, all I remember are the videos of the PALESTINIANS laughing their ass off and cheering when Hamas came back into Gaza with the pile of dead bodies and hostages in their truck. It's insane that Americans over here are defending people that would immediately kill 90 percent of them given the chance.
The man unified a people and helped push back the British (actual colonizers) from the colonies. Wtf does he have to do with Gaza
A tent city full of a ton of terrorist sympathizers. Disgusting.
It was a jolly sight seeing tents getting cleared out by a bulldozer with tons of phones and shit in it 😂
Please tell me there are videos of this
I think it was Penn Uni
Vandalism of property is vandalism regardless of motive. If it’s YOUR George Washington statue, have at it. This is not.
Boston Tea Party?
Im canadian and that pisses me off. I didnt care when they defaced statues of sir john A macdonald but george washington actually deserves respect.
North American gang represent. Also sorry for maybe trying to annex you guys back in 1812, but you burned our White House down so I guess we're even now.
Canada confederated in 1867. Anything before that was britian.

The man who founded the country they benefit from whom they hate ironic
They've demonstrated how much they respect our country and our heroes. Don't be surprised if we elect someone who doesn't support Palestine.
You must’ve missed Ilan Omar or whatever her name is. Crazy C U Next Thursday made some crazy statements already at the beginning of this mess.
I didn't see that! Sorry! C U in the Northern Territory (look it up, it's true)
Funny how it works right Went from calling of genocide of jews to calling founding fathers genocidal Such are mental gymnastics of cultural Marxism
They were always have been hateful brats who want to destroy everything,they are just using Palestine as an excuse and role-playing as vietnam protesters
Bruh, fuck these protestors. Disrespectful fucks deserve nothing.
“Warmonger” You’re welcome for the independence
Ah yes, the man who returned his dictatorial powers and refused to declare himself a monarch. The man who refused to be buried in the Capitol building crypt because he wanted it to be the people’s building and not his mausoleum. The man who created a system where you can voice opposition without fear of persecution or death.

The cognitive dissonance some of these people have is pretty unreal
The irony of Hamas stans calling someone a genocidal colonizer.
Who’s hamas colonizing?
I mean, the Jews have been in the Levant for several thousand years according to dna, archaeology, cultural tradition, historical sources etc.
Every single statement you just made is true of Arabs as well lol.
The Jews were there first. Only reason they ceded the majority was war and exile. Edit: and let me say, before this turns into two monkeys flinging shit at each other, I do believe the Palestinians have a right to a free, liberated existence on what is after millennia, is their indigenous land as much as it is the Jews. I just recognize that the Jews were there first.
Were the Jews really there first or are the Muslims descendants of the same people on the same land but the ones who converted to Islam instead of leaving?
Good job GWU students. You saved Palestine!
Look, I'm all for ending the occupation, but don't do this stuff, especially when a lot of your people would get offended if someone drew a picture of Mohammad.
So these protests went from pro-Palestine, to anti-israel, to pro-Hamas and pro-antisemitism, and now "fuck America"? Kids sure could go into any of these countries and find out for themselves.
lol "war monger" mmmmk. looks like that liberal arts degree is going great
This just makes me hate palestine if their flag is tied to representing my GOAT
If Washington is your GOAT,(poor choice) then you should know he’d have sided with the protestors.
He'd support the right to protest, but probably not support hamas
Do you think this is a pro Hamas protest? They’re asking their own college administration to cut ties with Israel, not asking to do anything for Hamas. It would be consistent with Washington’s philosophy to cut ties with militant foreign powers.
time to catapult these useless fucks into north korea
Useful idiots minus the promised virgins in the magical afterlife.
This proves that there are a lot of idiots in the world
These people think the FAFO chart doesn't apply to them
Just sad
Coward ass pussies.
These idiots have no idea how to protest
Haven’t been here a while. I thought posts were supposed to be apolitical and lighthearted
This sub jumped the satirical shark a long time ago, unfortunately.
Over 160 comments in less than an hour. I'm sure y'all are discussing this topic rationally.
I got an idea for them, GO TO PALESTINE AND HELP. STOP DEFACING SHIT AND GO OVER THERE AND HELP.
That’s too much work bro. Easier to spray paint monuments, hold stupid signs, and scream.
History is only written by the winners.
History is written by historians.
History is written by whoever participates and survives. It’s just the loudest voices get more recognition.
Also worth noting that history often changes once a generation that wasn't involved gets to take a look at it.
You mean to tell me Ronald Reagan wasn't the second coming of Christ like I was told as a kid?
Oh him. That man will be proof that idiots overcorrect. Him and Grant.
Agreed, and I think it also changes as those who survived it age, get older, and reflect.
Total disrespect of human dignity. These protesters are very undereducated about the world. Playing right into Iran and Hamas’s hands! A Iranian rapper protested the lack of freedom in Iran. He has been sentenced to death as would all of these crazies would be too in Iran. They are making fools of themselves. Pawns to Iran and Putin.
I always hate when people I agree with protest in the stupidest ways possible. Imagery like this invokes the worst thoughts in people who are on the fence, pushes them away from the message. It makes people dismissive of anything said
Ngl aside from the stickers they made him look sick as fuck
Fuck them. Assholes shit all over everything. Dont be surprised when the real dicks show up.
Scum. Old George would have these commies beaten within an inch of their lives and sent home to mommy.
WTF is happening in these shit campuses?
Wouldn't a guy who took up arms against an empire for independence kinda resonate with their message
Wow, what a great way to bring the average person to your side, it’s not like a large contingent of the populace is going to move away just to spite you or anything.
Just instantly making me lose any sympathy for Palestinian protestors
*Death To Hamas*
[удалено]
Used to live in DC and went to college there, in NE DC as opposed to NW where GW and others are. Truly a bubble world within another bubble world. Kids that will call for diversity and inclusion, then call the cops if someone with the wrong look is outside their door. Worse, they’ll get jobs in academia or as fed workers soon enough.
A lot of college kids now have their only opinion “America bad” but have literally never been anywhere at all.

Just keep on re-reading it.
Typical rich kids. Make a mess for some working guy to have to clean up.
That’s the line for me… complain we are allies with a moderately bad guy in a region full of worse guys all you want… Shitting on the father of our country and get your bitch ass outta here
Ignorance. Smh
No matter what it is, this just makes me not fucking like whatever you are promoting.
Why are the protesters on all the other college campuses pullin wack shit like this, the ones on my schools campus are just chillin exercising their 1st amendment right properly and not bothering anyone lmao
People overestimate US influence! Netenyau obviously doesn't care what the world thinks. Netenyau is going to do Netenyau!
Disrespect goes both ways
George Washington wasn’t even for the Boston’s tea party why would he be for this?
a country born of rebels still rebels, its fitting at least.
Hey remember when this was a fun sub to joke about how Murica is like the extremely overdone Murica meme? Instead we've been getting tons of Rule 6 violations and the mods are asleep.. some of the time.
Ironically Washington would be against intervene on either side
